The 4-star defensive tackle from Tucker High School was at DeKalb County Media Day on Tuesday.

We asked Ledbetter point-blank about the issue: What about the rumor he will flip to UGA at Dawg Night?

Ledbetter gave a reply, and see what you think about his answer, along with his body language.

And, when you watch the video below, you’ll see the conversation take a surprising turn: His older brother, Joe Ledbetter, is hoping to join the football program at Alabama or UGA. He’s applied to both schools, and has already been accepted at Alabama. He’s waiting to hear from UGA.

Joe Ledbetter is a former Tucker tight end who has played college basketball the last two seasons at Pfeiffer, an NCAA Div. II school in North Carolina. The 6-foot-5 forward appeared in 23 games last season, averaging 3.4 points and 4.7 rebounds.

You can look at Joe’s basketball film here, and see that he’s pretty big, athletic and physical. Joe hopes to follow the same type of path of Jimmy Graham and Antonio Gates, college basketball players who switched to football late in their athletic careers.

Back to Jonathan Ledbetter. He’s the No. 10 overall prospect in Georgia and probably under-rated since he’s skipped a grade and is still 16 years old. He has been committed to Alabama since last January, and confirmed on Tuesday that he will attend Dawg Night.

What about those rumors Ledbetter will switch from Alabama to UGA at Dawg Night? Please watch the below video:

This guy knows both Alabama and Georgia would be a good fit for him. If his brother has already been offered by Alabama but still wants to try out for Georgia then his OLDER brother does have some wiggle room. I think if his try out go's good and Georgia offers that he will accept and the young Ledbetter will flip but as we have seen in the past I don't think Georgia will offer just to get the young Ledbetter.

Some of these 5- Stars are finally getting it. That everyone at Alabama can't play at the same time. Come to Georgia who can use the Depth and play your Freshman year if ready and definitely by your 2ND year or go to Bama and waste a year of eligibility playing every once in a while and not a starter until your 3RD year.

If he flips its because we told him his spot was being taken by someone else, everyone wants to play at Bama. But if Coach Saban doesn't start developing all these players that will stop, we have the had the top 5 classes in a row, well on our way to a 6th number one class, yet we are on a 2 game losing streak, one directly related to a coaching decision. Coach Saban needs to spend more of his time developing a scheme to slow down all the spread offenses we are seeing today, luckily we have been able to outscore most of them, but with starting qb who is a reject from another school, that may not be the case this year. All us Bama fans need to stick together and demand accountability from our staff. With the players we are recruiting every year we should win every game by 2 TDs, we should be able to get a home field game in the playoffs of the NFL, but our underperforming team seems to roll over when we face a spread offense. It seems Coach Saban's plan to stop it was voted down by the rules committee, now we have to stop them on the field, so far we have failed. As always ROLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL TIDEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

You just keep on waving your confederate flag there, Wet. But it is not going to change the outcome of the civil war or eliminate the civil rights bill signed by President Johnson. Grant is an outstanding BB coach......and yes, he is a black man.

Tampa, I know Anthony Grant has a lot of friends in Gainesville, but you're reaching here. Whatever the reason, it isn't happening in Tuscaloosa. Saban loves him. The AD loves him. The school president loves him, too.

But the program lacks consistency, talent and campus support. AG has not worked hard to promote, and has even blown off his radio show on several occasions. Pivotal year ahead. Lots of new players and recruits. Let' see if any of them can play.

Tampa...GFY...Grant sucks. Even his players don't like him!!!!!!! Mal thought AG was the Man when he signed him along with Wimp and CM. Problem is all three were wrong. LOOK at VCU under Shaky ( I would love to have) and see Grant got way to much credit for his stint there.

Hey Richt, Hey Booboo, Here's a novel approach, try a DUAL THREAT QUARTERBACK and a physical ATHLETIC offensive line! What have you got to lose? After all it's been 35 years! Try something different Richt! Damn.

The last time Georgia won a National Title, the hula hoop was invented, 1980. Look it up.

If in fact Brandon Kennedy commits (OL) commits to Bama instead of Auburn on Friday Dallas will be really looking around. Bama needs tackles and we're still signing guards. Kids want to play and play right now and that will not happen for Dallas at Bama. We'll see. 26 is number Bama will take in 2015.

Nick will need to cut some on our list for better players and run some on the roster off as well.....LOL

um.... Richt & Bobo aren't listening to you. They get paid handsomely for their decisions. I don't think they run to the 'cruiting blog for your unsagely advice. BTW, no profanity is allowed. MC pay heed.

If he Flips he might Flip back at the end of the Year. If you remember Derick Henry was once a Georgia Bulldog Verbal Commit, but where is he playing at? That's right a team that has won 4 National Championships since last time Georgia won there one and only.

The trend in committing is getting worse the last 2-3 years. More and more flips....which plays havoc on ANY coach trying to fill needs.. You think you are set at a certain position then the kid flips weeks or days before signing day. I think flipping is hurting football. My idea to curb this is to have a rule that if you flip a kid 30 days inside signing day, you lose a scholarship for next years class. THAT would slow it down.

@96JB Sure - that's why the ones he doesn't opt out on think they've had a Bama offer since they were freshmen, even though Saban might not have been final in his own mind until halfway through their senior year.

Considering most of the recruits are committing before their senior year even begins I think that proves your point to be incorrect. AJ Green was committed to Georgia since right before his Junior year and never wavered. It happens everywhere and all the time. Most of Alabama's recruits are offered their junior year and our coaches hit them hard for two years to maintain their interest and the commitment if we get one. We get a lot of four and five star guys, and the are rated before their Junior years these days, making offers more of the norm in their Junior year.

Now if an injury occurs, we will look into grey shirting, just like a lot of other programs do it. But we offer four year scholarships unlike a lot of schools, so if you sign you'll get your four year deal.

Coming from a guy whose Coach yanked a scholarship from the kid from Tucker who sustained a career ending injury, Shaw. Oh wait, we kept our promise of a four year scholarship and he attends Alabama on a football scholarship even though he's injured and can never play again. Yeah, sounds like the definition of slime to me.

I think he is less than a solid commit, and like most young folks, commitment doesn't mean a lot until LOI day. at the moment. At 16, he is still at the, recruiting is fun stage. A verbal commitment doesn't mean a whole lot to kids these days. Maybe his brother has a shot at UGA, but I guess we will just have to wait and see on DAWG night. If he is good enough to get a scholarship, I wonder how many years he could play at the FBS level?

His only real body language "Tell" was when asked about wanting to play with his brother. If Pruitt wants him badly enough - stand up with big bro in front of everyone at Dawg Night and get HIM to commit.
